World wicket keepers, your rankings.

what i am proposing is for everyone to list all the wicket keepers from all the test nations in order of how you view their talent.

Call me what you want or tell me I'm wrong but the amount of times I've defended/praised/said how much I like players from other teams and berated Aussie players when deserved, frankly I'm insulted that the accusation of bias has even been raised. Go take a very, very long walk off a very, very short pier.

That last statement is about as mature as me stating bias in the first place.
Perhaps I did jump the gun, but I refuse to believe that there is no better gloveman in the world than Gilchrist.
